What is a digital visitor logbook?
A digital visitor logbook is an online system for recording visitor check-in, host details, guard actions, checkout, and visitor history instead of writing everything in a paper book.

The problem
A paper visitor book becomes difficult to trust when records matter.
Handwritten visitor books can be hard to read, slow to search, and easy to leave incomplete. A digital visitor logbook gives admins and security teams a cleaner way to confirm who entered, when they arrived, who they visited, and whether they checked out.
Replace handwritten entries with searchable digital visitor history.
Track check-in, approval, active visit, checkout, and closed visit status.
Capture only the visitor information your facility decides to request.
Help guards manage visitor records without exposing admin-only controls.

FAQs
Common questions about digital visitor logbook Kenya.
Quick answers for organizations comparing digital visitor logs, QR check-in, guard dashboards, visitor checkout, and record keeping.
02
Is a digital visitor logbook better than a paper visitor book?
It is better when a facility needs searchable records, clearer checkout tracking, and easier follow-up. Paper books can work for very small sites, but they are harder to search, audit, and protect from mistakes.
03
Can guards still register walk-in visitors?
Yes. Guards can register walk-in visitors from the guard dashboard and record the fields enabled by the company admin.
04
Can a digital logbook show who is still inside?
Yes. When checkout is used properly, admins and guards can see whether a visitor is still active or already checked out.
05
Can old visitor personal data be anonymised?
Karibu VMS can support anonymisation for checked-out visitors while keeping non-sensitive operational history and billing usage separate.
